DPT 2 - Priority Switch

DPT 2 has three outputs in Value Inputs and four inputs in Value Outputs. To set a value on a Value Output, you can either send one integer on IN (recommended), or two booleans to SWITCH and PRIORITY (in this case, additionally using the TRIGGER input is recommended).

Name

Output / Input

Description

TRIGGER

No / Yes

See /wiki/spaces/LEHC/pages/28050156

IN

Yes / Yes

Combined value 0-3 Integer

S	P
0	0	0
0	1	1
1	0	2
1	1	3

SWITCH

Yes / Yes

Switch command - boolean

PRIORITY

Yes / Yes

Priority data - boolean

DPT 3 - Dimming

DPT 3 has three outputs in Value Inputs and four inputs in Value Outputs.

Direction as boolean. True for upwards and false for downwards.
Step width as Integer. For the sending, the exact values for the step width are expected.
- Possible values: 1
- 2
- 4
- 8
- 16
- 32
- 64

Stop as boolean. A true is sent / received for stop. For the start, a false is also issued.

DPT 10 - time

DPT 10 has four outputs in Value Inputs but six input values in Value Outputs. For the conversion into a KNX telegram, the transfer of a timestamp is possible.

Name	Output / Input	Description
TRIGGER	No / Yes	See Value in-/output
TS	No / Yes	Timestamp - the timestamp is used in order to send the timestamp in compressed form in one go. The timestamp can be taken from the Clock, for example. This is a so-called UNIX timestamp which corresponds to the seconds since 01.01.1970.
DOW	Yes / Yes	Day of week. 1 for Monday to 7 for Sunday
HOUR	Yes / Yes	Hour 0 - 23
MINUTE	Yes / Yes	Minute 0 - 60
SECOND	Yes / Yes	Second 0 - 60

DPT 11 - date

DPT 11 has three outputs in Value Inputs but five input values in Value Outputs. For the conversion into a KNX telegram, the transfer of a timestamp is possible.

Name	Output / Input	Description
TRIGGER	No / Yes	See Value in-/output
TS	No / Yes	Timestamp - the timestamp is used in order to send the timestamp in compressed form in one go. The timestamp can be taken from the Clock, for example. This is a so-called UNIX timestamp which corresponds to the seconds since 01.01.1970.
YEAR	Yes / Yes	The period between 1990 and 2089 can be processed via KNX
MONTH	Yes / Yes	Month of the year 1 for January until 12 for December
DAY	Yes / Yes	Day of the month 1 - 31

DPT 18.001 - scene control

DPT 18.001 has two outputs in Value Inputs but three input values in Value Outputs.

Name	Output / Input	Description
TRIGGER	No / Yes	See Value in-/output
SAVE	Yes / Yes	Indicated whether this is an Activate or Save command as boolean (false: activate, true: save)
SCENE	Yes / Yes	The number of the scene. Note: in accordance with the recommendation from the KNX specifications, LOGIKEDITOR uses the 1..64 range, while supporting 0..63 on the KNX side. Thus, if you send or receive value 1, the actual telegram will contain value 0.

To send a scene control command, the use of the TRIGGER input is recommended. Otherwise a telegram is issued with every incoming value, which can lead to the activation or saving of the wrong scene number.

DPT 232 and DPT 12.600 - Colour

Three and four byte colour.

The 12.600 type is not part of the KNX specification. It is required for the DUODMX GATEWAY in order to be able to control the corresponding RGBW light there.

Name	Output / Input	Description
TRIGGER	No / Yes	See Value Input / Value Output
COLOUR	Yes / Yes	Coded RGB(W) colour value
RED	Yes / Yes	Red channel (0 - 255)
GREEN	Yes / Yes	Green channel (0 - 255)
BLUE	Yes / Yes	Blue channel (0 - 255)
WHITE	Yes / Yes	White channel (0 - 255) - only with 12.600

To send a colour value, the use of either the COLOUR input or the TRIGGER input is recommended. Otherwise a telegram is issued with every incoming value.

DPT 242 - xyY Colour

Name	Output / Input	Description
TRIGGER	No / Yes	See Value Input / Value Output
COLOUR	Yes / Yes	Coded colour value
X	Yes / Yes	x value of the xyY color spectrum (0 - 65535)
Y	Yes / Yes	y value of the xyY color spectrum (0 - 65535)
BRIGHTNESS	Yes / Yes	Percentage (0 - 100)

To send a xyY colour value, the use of the TRIGGER input is recommended. Otherwise a telegram is issued with every incoming value.

DPT 243 - xyY Colour Fade

Name	Output / Input	Description
TRIGGER	No / Yes	See Value Input / Value Output
COLOUR	Yes / Yes	Coded colour value
X	Yes / Yes	x value of the xyY color spectrum (0 - 65535)
Y	Yes / Yes	y value of the xyY color spectrum (0 - 65535)
BRIGHTNESS	Yes / Yes	Percentage (0 - 100)
DURATION	Yes / Yes	Fade Duration in seconds (0 - 6553.5)

To send a xyY colour fade value, the use of the TRIGGER input is recommended. Otherwise a telegram is issued with every incoming value.

DPT 249 - Colour Temperature Fade

Name	Output / Input	Description
TRIGGER	No / Yes	See Value Input / Value Output
COLOUR TEMP.	Yes / Yes	Kelvin (0 - 65535)
BRIGHTNESS	Yes / Yes	Percentage (0 - 100)
DURATION	Yes / Yes	Fade Duration in seconds (0 - 6553.5)
COLOUR	Yes / No	Coded RGB colour value

To send a colour temperature fade value, the use of the TRIGGER input is recommended. Otherwise a telegram is issued with every incoming value.

DPT 251 - RGBW Colour

Name	Output / Input	Description
TRIGGER	No / Yes	See Value Input / Value Output
COLOUR	Yes / Yes	Coded RGBW colour value
RED	Yes / Yes	Red channel (0 - 255)
GREEN	Yes / Yes	Green channel (0 - 255)
BLUE	Yes / Yes	Blue channel (0 - 255)
WHITE	Yes / Yes	White channel (0 - 255)

To send a colour value, the use of either the COLOUR input or the TRIGGER input is recommended. Otherwise a telegram is issued with every incoming value.
